Thanks a ton, guys. :) It's nice and reassuring to know what to expect when going to see a doctor. I am also wondering whether or not I should get a hormone check. I always thought something inside...
Thank you, stkitt. :) I feel like such a newb but I have not been to a physician in such a long time. What exactly do they do during a medical screening exam? What tests? Not so much as scared just...
23yo female I've had anxiety off and on this year, still not sure exactly why. I've also started to feel depressed. I have a lot of stress at home and constantly worry. But I still have a fear that...
Thank you guys so much for your words of encouragement. It means a lot and it helps a lot as well. I'm still terrified, but that's understandable. :P I hope I can get enough courage to go - I know I...
I hate to admit this. But I'm a twenty-three year old female who has never had a pap smear or a breast exam. It makes me extremely anxious just thinking about it. My mother passed away from cervical...
For many years, I would google my symptoms and SO much would come up that it would make me so nervous. And I finally quit. I joined HW for the comfort and support not for a dx. And I apologize if I...
I'm in no way saying I have D/P - just saying I'm experiencing a lot of the same symptoms. And it's just nice to know I'm not the only one. Even if its something else causing these feelings of mine.....
Wow, I've been reading all y'alls posts.. and my heart goes out to you all. A week ago.. I started feeling really dream-like also. Hard to explain but someone said "I hate the sensation of it. I...

When I wake up in the mornings, I feel totally "out of it." It's the only way I can describe it. I feel like I'm still half asleep and not as attentive as I should be. I start having weird thoughts....
No, I'm not taking any medications. And I totally agree with you about the viscous cycle, that is certainly what it is. I have plans to see a doctor about my anxiety and also try to have a routine...
I posted a few times about having panic attacks a few weeks ago. I have been having small ones off and on for a few weeks now. I think they aren't nearly as bad as they could be. I start talking...
